SUMMARY:mέta-cinema: premiere 12/2/22 17:30pm at mikrokosmos\, Digger\, a film by G. Grigorakis
DESCRIPTION:Constantly pursuing the dialogue between art and political endeavour\, the Centre for Postcapitalist Civilisation (mέta) proceeds with a series of films regularly screened in the multi-space facility of Mikrokosmos\, literally bringing in the centre of our attention a genre connected per se to this pursuit: cinema. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith the kind contribution of Greek and foreign creators\, who\, quite often\, work in stifling conditions\, mέta proposes to a wider public significant\, recent film productions\, which visualise but also critically problematise various aspects of the multi-faceted crisis surrounding us\, as well as pinpoint emancipatory alternatives. For\, quite often\, optical language proves to be much more eloquent than numerous written pages\, in the depiction of societal reality – at times\, riveting. \n\n\n\nAnd the first step of this multi-month wandering\, as we aspire\, takes place on February 12\, 2022 at 17:30 with the film Digger. The award-winning film by George Grigorakis\, which received 14 nominations for the Iris Awards of the Hellenic Film Academy\, although presents a fictional story\, comes up as a valuable testimony to the abuse of the Greek nature\, the reversal of social relations but also the activation of primordial resistance against the mining industry’s invasion\, which our (post) memorandum dystopia projects as the royal path for “development”. \n\n\n\nmέta is a civil-non-profit research and cultural institution\, related to the political party MeRA25\, the European movement DiEM25\, and Progressive International. It was established in 2020\, aiming to explore eutopic alternatives to the postcapitalist era in which we are already living\, through academic and cultural actions regarding the political\, social\, economic\, ecological\, cultural\, and civilisational challenges of our times. \n\n\n\nCine Mikrokosmos (member of Europa Cinemas) was born in the fall of 2004\, on Syngrou Avenue\, opposite ex-Fix Industry\, equipped with state – of the – art technology and with a unique architectural approach. Having hosted numerous festivals and tributes\, without ever standing off from first-rate promotions\, committed to cinephile choices\, and particularly hospitable to independent Greek productions\, Mikrokosmos has created its own audience and is chosen for its ideal show conditions\, its careful selections\, and\, occasionally\, for its autonomous bar\, which operates in the foyer at affordable prices and cinematic ambiance. \n\n\n\nGeorge Grigorakis is a director and screenwriter with a degree in Social Psychology\, a Master of Arts in Film Directing at the National Film School (NFTS) in London\, and an alumnus at the Berlinale and Sarajevo Talent Campus. He has written and directed many short films\, which have won international attention and awards at over a hundred film festivals. \n\n\n\nDIGGER\, his first feature film\, was developed through Nipkow Scholarships\, Cannes Cinefondation Residency and the Sundance Institute. \n\n\n\nIt premiered at the 70th Berlinale where it won the CICAE Art Cinema Award\, was awarded the Best Actor Award in Sarajevo and continued its successful run at internationally recognized festivals around the world (AFI\, Busan\, Melbourne\, Philadelphia\, São Paolo\, Gifa\, Haifa others). He won the Special Commission Award – Silver Alexander and four more awards in Thessaloniki. Winned 10 Iris Awards of the Hellenic Film Academy (Best Film\, Direction\, Screenplay).

SUMMARY:Yanis Varoufakis interviews Omar Barghouti
DESCRIPTION:While the massacre in Gaza is ongoing\, and the repression of Palestinians everywhere is intensifying\, how can progressives show meaningful solidarity with those suffering from\, and struggling against\, Israel’s regime of occupation\, settler-colonialism and apartheid? Looking to a future worth fighting for\, is this the time for a SINGLE DEMOCRATIC STATE for Jews and Palestinians? Is the two-state solution the right objective for progressives or a formalisation of apartheid? To discuss these questions\, on Monday 24th May 2021 at 19.30BST\, 20.30 CET\, 21.30EET Yanis Varoufakis\, MeRA25 leader and DiEM25 co-founder\, will interview Omar Barghouti\, co-founder of the BDS movement for Palestinian rights (*)\, co-recipient of the 2017 Ghandi Peace Award.  \n\n\n\n(*) BDS has emerged as a consensus movement that is increasingly recognized around the world\, by trade unions\, social movements\, racial and climate justice groups\, churches\, among others\, as the most effective form of solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for freedom\, justice and equality. Instead of adopting a specific political solution\, it strategically focuses on ending international complicity in Israel’s system of oppression\, as was done in the struggle to end South African apartheid.

SUMMARY:Launch & Streaming Premiere: mέta — Centre for Postcapitalist Civilisation
DESCRIPTION:Imagine the world anew\, together. \n\n\n\nFree admission \n\n\n\nThrough a sequence of intensifying crises\, capitalism has already morphed into a dystopian postmodern\, hi-tech version of feudalism. Postcapitalism is\, thus\, already here.  \n\n\n\nThrough art and research\, argument and poetry\, mέta\, the Centre for Postcapitalist Civilisation\, works to break with a dystopic present to imagine the world anew – to grasp our present historical moment so as to help radical progressive movements find a path from the emergent dismal postcapitalism to one worth fighting\, and living\, for. \n\n\n\nThe Centre for Postcapitalist Civilisation (mέta) introduces itself to the public and the media\, presenting its aims\, its activities and its people from Greece and abroad\, in a hybrid event with artistic performances\, which will be live-streamed on Thursday 13 May at 8pm Athens time (UTC +3).

They may turn out dystopic\, utopic or anything in between. Through art and research\, argument and poetry\, mέta\, the Centre for Postcapitalist Civilisation\, works to break with a dystopic present to imagine the world anew – to grasp our present historical moment so as to help radical progressive movements find a path from the emergent dismal postcapitalism to one worth fighting\, and living\, for. \n\n\n\nThe Centre for Postcapitalist Civilisation –mέta– was established in 2020 as a not-for-profit research organisation in order to facilitate the exchange of ideas in a radical direction and to support the pan-European movement DiEM25\, the Greek political party MeRA25\, and the Progressive International (all of which are represented in mέta’s Steering Committee). mέta seeks to employ a dual approach\, combining the academic/political/educational with the cultural and the artistic. mέta’s activities include research and publishing initiatives\, the organisation of festivals\, seminars\, workshops and events –academic and cultural/artistic alike– focusing on the political\, social\, economic\, ecological and cultural dimensions of the challenges we face at the national\, European\, and global level. Its current Steering Committee includes Danae Stratou (Chair)\, Professor Sissy Velissariou (Vice-Chair)\, Eleni Spetsioti (Secretary)\, Michael Hatzitheodorou (Treasurer)\, Ivana Nenadović and David Adler (members). More on its international Advisory Board may be found here. \n\n\n\nAddress: Mavrommateon 15\, 10434 Athens\, Greece \n\n\n\nhttp://metacpc.org

DESCRIPTION:This presentation offers an overview of empirical data and its fluctuations over many years\, such as data on the crisis of institutions and political ideologies.
